Proximal femoral fractures are particularly common in older adults, and cases requiring conversion to total hip arthroplasty may arise because of treatment failure or osteoarthritis. Fractures around the distal screw removal holes can be problematic. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between stem length and femoral stress distribution to determine the optimal stem length.

Contradictory links between lipid levels and bone health: atherogenic index of plasma and bone microarchitecture.

J Orthop Surg Res

Department of Spine, Wangjing Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing, 100000, China.

Purpose: Lipids increase osteoporosis and fracture risk, yet research on Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP), bone mineral density declines (BMD), and trabecular bone score (TBS) is limited. This study examined the relationships between AIP, TBS, and BMD in American adults using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data, including the effect of obesity.

Methods: Based on data from 3,162 Americans, multivariable logistic regression and a generalized additive model (GAM) were used to analyze AIP, BMD, and TBS.

Subtrochanteric fractures in older patients are typically due to low-energy falls. The standard of care is intramedullary nailing. The Smith & Nephew Trigen Intertan (Memphis, TN, US) is an intramedullary nail with a novel design that incorporates two integrated compression screws.

Objective: Abaloparatide (ABL) is a synthetic parathyroid hormone-related protein analog developed as an anabolic drug to treat osteoporosis. ABL increases bone mineral density (BMD) of the long bones and spine; however, the influence of ABL on alveolar bone regeneration remains unknown. This study assessed the effects of systemic ABL administration on tooth extraction socket healing and dental implant osseointegration in a preclinical rodent model.

Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a congenital bone disease caused by tissue-nonspecific mutations in the alkaline phosphatase gene. It is classified into six types: severe perinatal, benign prenatal, infantile, pediatric, adult, and odonto. HPP with femoral hypoplasia on fetal ultrasonography, seizures, or early loss of primary teeth can be easily diagnosed.
